Abstract
A region calculus is a polymorphically typed lambda calculus with explicit memory management primitives. Every value is annotated with a region in which it is stored. Regions are allocated and deallocated in a stack-like fashion. The annotations can be statically inferred by a type and eect system, making a region calculus suitable as an intermediate language for a compiler of statically typed programming languages.
